Stitched Together Layout 5 CTMH

I had a bit of paper left over after making 4 layouts from the Close to My Heart Stitched Together paper packet and coordinating cardstock.  So I decided to make this bonus layout.  I really loved this patterned paper, so it is in several of the layouts, however they all look a bit different.  There is still a bit of paper left to make a title if desired or add other embellishment die cuts.
I added 2 Lemonade cardstock base pages and one Sapphire for photo mats. 
The accents were cut with my diamonds border die.  The journal spot was made with the double stitched square die that I angled to match the diamond borders I added to this layout.  I used some leftover Sweet Leaf cardstock and the blue dotted patterned paper with Sapphire in the diamond border die.

Aurora Layout 5 CTMH

Here is a bonus layout from the CMTH Aurora paper packet.  There is still a little bit of paper left for adding a title later on. I added 2 base pages in Sage cardstock and Evergreen cardstock for photo mats.  

The journal spot was cut with the CTMH Stitched Rectangle Frame die.  The photo mats are 4 x 6 and one 4 x 4.  The triangle were cut from two 6 x 6 inch pieces of plaid paper.  I had some Peacock cardstock left so I accented the triangle pieces with that.
I have left spaces for a title and/or embellishments once I add pictures and those always make the layout pop.  I like to leave some pages open to whatever pictures I may have as I design layouts and then look for pictures to work.

Stitched Together Layout 4

This is the 4th and final layout using the Close to My Heart Stitched Together paper and the Stitched Together coordinating cardstock.  I have added Daisy White to add photo mats to this layout.

The butterflies are a Quickutz die and the title was made with my Cameo.  There is still a little bit of paper left to make a card or for any other use.

Stitched Together Layout 2

This is the second layout from the Close to My Heart Stitched Together paper and Stitched Together coordinating cardstock.  This layout was also based on a layout by another CTMH consultant. I did also add 2 bulk pieces of Stitched Together and 3 Daisy White pieces of cardstock.
The 2 little pockets that I made one could have a picture that slides in and the other could be used for the journal spot.  I did not double mat the 2 smaller photo mats as not every photo mat has to be the same.
I used my Quickutz lady bug dies to add some fun to the 2 pockets.

Stitched Together Layout 1

This layout uses the Close to My Heart Stitched Together paper and Stitched Together coordinating cardstock.  This design was based on a layout from another CTMH consultant, but it is not exactly the same.  This is based on the Make it from Your Heart volume 3, pattern 5.
I added some paper from the Mixed In paper packet to this layout.  The journal spot is the CTMH scalloped die and the the center of it was from a die I had on hand.  The corner spots and lace border were made with CTMH lace border, quilting and stitched rectangle dies.

Yesterday and Today Layout 3

Here is a real simple layout using the Close to My Heart Yesterday and Today paper packet and some extra cardstock.

The cardstock colors used where French Vanilla, Espresso, Toffee and Mink.

I used dies I hand on hand to add some design elements to this layout.  The title is a Treasure Box Design .
This layout allows for a big picture of two 4 x 6 pictures side by side with some matting showing between them.
